Corrie stars among thousands at Martyn Hett's vigil

Yesterday evening, a vigil was held for Martyn Hett, the Coronation Street fan who was among those killed in the Manchester bomb attack last week. The vigil was attended by thousands of people. It's impossible to put it into words, and so I'll let these pictures do the talking. The above picture is from Dolly-Rose Campbell‏, who plays Gemma Winter in Coronation Street.

Dolly-Rose holds the letter N in the image above. Holding the letter O between them are Corrie producer Kate Oates and Gilly Walsh, who worked for many years as Corrie make-up artist. She is now working at Hollyoaks.

A rainbow even appeared...

And Julie Hesmondhalgh, who played Hayley Cropper in Coronation Street, posted this picture to twitter: @juliehesHonoured to be at his fabulous feet. Beautiful night of celebrating a life lived to the full #BeMoreMartyn
